In the executive standard of puffed food, it is publicized that infants and young children can eat. Does it meet the national standard for complementary food for infants and young children?

Food standards for infants and young children are also an important basis for judging food.

1、 Standard classification

All packaged food produced in China must have the standard number of the product. China's food related standards are divided into four categories: national standards, industrial standards, local standards and enterprise standards.

01 national standard

This concept refers to the standards approved, issued, unified and applicable by the national official standardization agency or the relevant agencies authorized by the national government. Products produced and sold in China must be made in accordance with national standards. In addition to foreign imported goods, it will also be managed according to national standards.

National standard is the most authoritative standard and the most widely used standard. GB or gb/t starts with the product standard number. GB means that the national mandatory standards must comply with the corresponding products. Gb/t is a recommended national standard, and enterprises are encouraged to adopt it.

02 industry standard

It refers to the unified standards of various industries in China. Industrial standards are a supplement to national standards. Industrial standards are automatically abolished after the implementation of corresponding national standards. Industrial standards are only applicable to products that are not regulated by the state. Although they are regulated by the state, the scope of application is small.

The commodity standard number starts with the industry abbreviation. There are a lot of numbers at the beginning, which is very messy. For example, NY agricultural standard, Sb commercial standard, SC aquatic industry standard, Sn commodity inspection industry standard, WM foreign trade industry standard, etc.

03 local standards

Within the scope of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government, local standards may be formulated for industrial products that do not have national standards or industrial standards and that require unified safety and health requirements. Local standards shall not conflict with national standards or industrial standards. After the implementation of corresponding national standards or industrial standards, local standards shall be abolished automatically. Local standards shall be formulated by local governments and managed by enterprises. The scope of application is not large.

In addition, there are sometimes conflicts between local standards. The commodity standard number starts from DB.

04 enterprise standard

In the absence of corresponding national, industrial and local standards, the products produced by an enterprise shall serve as the basis for organizing production. In addition, in the case of corresponding national standards, industrial standards and local standards, the State encourages enterprises to formulate enterprise standards that fully reflect the needs of market customers and consumers without violating corresponding mandatory standards, and apply them in strict accordance with national standards, industrial standards and local standards. General enterprise standards shall be formulated by the enterprise itself and implemented after being approved by the local department. This standard is only applicable to the enterprise.

I feel lack of authority. The production standard number starts with Q.

National standards are higher than industry standards, higher than local standards and higher than enterprise standards. When buying food, give priority to national standard products.

2、 Infant standards

There are 7 infant food standards in China, all of which are national mandatory standards. This is for some specific food regulations. Let's see again!

1. Gb10765 infant formula

Babies are 0-12 months old. This standard specifies a formula. The focus is on the restriction of product pollutants and the addition of various nutrients. All domestic milk powder must be produced according to this standard.
